今天看到兩則新聞。 一個是來自於一貫對大陸烏鴉嘴巴的《明報》。
另一篇則來自於自由世界的主流媒體。 兩則新聞反映出的相同之處是: 人民都對自己社會的現狀和走向感到失望。
不久前,國內共識網刊登一份由湘潭大學副教授李開盛主持的網上民意調查報告,題為《中國網民的政治與社會認知》。
超過半數受訪者不認同中國現行政治製度,而超過70%的受訪者最認同美國政治製度。這一結論,堪稱震撼,無論對官方還是民間。對許多人而言,上述結論,既可以說出乎意料,又可以說在意料之中。
二、Poll: 64% Say America On Wrong Track
Nearly two-thirds of American adults say the country is headed in the wrong direction - the highest level of pessimism about the nation’s direction recorded in a McClatchy-Marist poll since President Obama assumed office over two years ago.
Immediately after the midterm elections, Obama seemed to be turning a corner, as Americans had more rosy opinions of both him and the nation’s direction. But in the past few months, that brief bump has been quickly reversed.
In the poll, 64% of respondents said the country was headed in the wrong direction, while just 30% said it was headed in the right direction. That’s a stunning turnaround since January when 41% said the country was on the right track, and 47% said it was on the wrong track.
The current level of pessimism is the highest of Obama’s presidency, and is on par with levels measured during the waning months of the Bush presidency.
The latest TPM Poll Average shows that 67% of Americans think the country is headed in the wrong direction, compared to 26.3% who think the opposite.
